LEGO-loving siblings , a Surrey resident, and his sister Emily, who lives in Maple Ridge, have excelled with their tiny-brick builds in this fall鈥檚 third season of FOX-TV鈥檚 reality-competition series, also seen on CTV.

David Guedes is a 鈥淟EGO lifer鈥� who successfully auditioned for the Will Arnett-hosted show, then chose his sister as team partner. The show finished shooting in Atlanta last spring, but the siblings are watching it now for the first time. They won鈥檛 (and contractually can鈥檛) say how it all ends Dec. 14 in a double-episode season finale.

鈥淒oing reality TV was completely new for me,鈥� David said. 鈥淚鈥檝e spent a lot of time building LEGO over the years, but never on camera.鈥�

In this week鈥檚 episode, to air Wednesday (Dec. 7), the Guedes are among four teams left in the competition. The pairs split into teams to build a race car. In a 10-lap race, the winning team will be safe from elimination and guaranteed a spot in the semi-finals.

In the 鈥渇inal four,鈥� the Guedes team is up against Calgary firefighters Stephen Joo and Stephen Cassley, an 鈥渋nfluencers鈥� duo of Nick Della Mora (Toronto) and Stacey Roy (琉璃神社), and the American Tull brothers.

Both in their mid-30s, the Guedes siblings had a lot of fun filming 鈥淟EGO Masters鈥� and also watching the episodes on TV over the past couple of months.

鈥淔ilming the show was so much fun,鈥� David said, 鈥渂ut I鈥檓 really enjoying watching it now. Despite knowing what happened when we were there on set, you don鈥檛 know how it鈥檚 going to be portrayed on television and what happened with the other teams. When we were there we were so focused on what we were building, we didn鈥檛 see what everyone else was building.
